![]() The goal – to simply survive – is a little alien to the norm for videogames where players expect going in to be presented with objectives to “win.” So I do understand where the negative reviews are coming from – this is not a game for everyone. Players can even leave messages for one another – a feature torn in its entirety from the Soul’s franchise.Īs a big fan of Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls, the challenge of ZombiU appealed to me, and as a fan of classic zombie films, I feel this game is one of the finest recreations of a zombie apocalypse that we’ve seen in games yet. It’s a relentlessly challenging game that focuses on players learning through dying, and has some asynchronous online multiplayer options – dead characters turn into zombies and can be killed by online friends. Thematically, ZombiU is very much like From Software’s Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls games. What I got was an intense horror game that was… familiar from start to finish. ![]() ![]() Given all the hype behind it, and indeed my first impressions of the game from a Wii U demo booth, I expected an intense horror game quite unlike what I had ever played before. I really did expect ZombiU to be more creative than it was in the end. ![]()
